Kate Middleton Made February About Mental Health
The Princess of Wales started off February by visiting Bethnal Green where she helped students with arts and crafts. She also visited St Johns CE Primary School. In fact, the mother of three has been a strong supporter of childhood development with her Shaping Us scheme being her strong focus.
Additionally, Prince Harry was popular for his stance on mental health. Clearly, the Royal Family is keenly aware of the need for patronage.
Kate Middleton, Prince William, and King Charles are all aware of the mental health of Prince Harry. The publication of Prince Harry’s book, “Spare” told of the mental issues he had from the loss of his mother Princess Di, and the breakup of his parent’s marriage. King Charles blamed himself for his son’s mental problems. However, Prince Harry, after discussing his issues directly with his father, has forgiven him and hopefully is on his way to recovery.
